On further reflection, ICE is more accurately described as Trump's Tonton Macoute. #FuckICE #DefundICE #ReleaseTheFiles

Anyone who thinks European libs "suddenly now" hate the US is a fucking mark Europe has used USA as a foil to disavow their own European colonial history and racism for decades, European libs and even leftists insisted racism only exists in the US and that USians are *various phobic stereotypes*

These absolute fucking grapes aren't seeing a dime of that money. No way they can ride out 5 years of this job.

Whiteβs book βCharlotteβs Webβ. Standing in a wooden doorway to a barn is a contented looking young pig. Across the top hall of the doorway are several spiderwebs that have the words βMaybe it will happen todayβ webbed into them. The spider who made them is hanging down on a filament at the pigβs eye level.

Starting tomorrow, the Trump administration is set to send notices to 1,000 student loan borrowers (first round) noticing them of an intent to garnish their wages for student loan debt.
This is cruel and unnecessary.
If you receive a notice, send it to us and we'll try to help.
Take it from a Filipino, even if you despise the current rulers of your country, you will live to regret the day the United States comes in to remove them

American conservatism in a nutshell.

"Pleasantly disquieting... There's much to savour in this Black speculative world where wealth, trade and magick intersect, witchery and martial arts merge in action, much action..." Eugen Bacon, Aurealis Magazine #172
Starting the year at $10 at Amazon.
A point that Wallerestein made often: as overall US power declines, it overplays its best cardβmilitary force. But each time it does so, it accelerates the decline of its overall power. SeeVietnam, Iraq. Violent coercion is the strength of the weak.

Country 2 is facing off with country 6. And there are riots in country 3. But oil is only $60/bbl. Maybe oil is not as critical as it used to be?

03.01.2026 19:53 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0So much of American history is just impulsive and extremely stupid elites, who don't believe in consequences because they have never personally experienced them, doing highly consequential stuff because they're bored or believe it might make them richer. I guess a lot of our culture, too.
